Pearl Jam Announce Immersive ‘Gigaton Listening Experience’ Event
The event includes a playback of the band’s new album ‘Gigaton’ in its entirety in Dolby Atmos.
Pearl Jam and Abramorama are proud to announce the ‘Gigaton Listening Experience’ – a special, one night only audio-visual event in 200+ Dolby Atmos equipped theatres around the world on 25 March 2020.
The immersive event takes over the big screen just two days before the release of Pearl Jam’s long-awaited new album, Gigaton [Monkeywrench/Republic Records], on 27 March. Visit the band’s official website for further information.
The Gigaton Listening Experience includes a playback of the entire album in Dolby Atmos. This listening experience will give Pearl Jam fans the opportunity to hear the album in a completely different way. Dolby Atmos expands the creative palette for artists and puts you more directly in touch with their vision without compromise, bringing you closer than ever to the songs you love. Instruments and vocals can be articulated with incredible clarity and the use of immersive sound makes listeners feel like they’re inside the music.
“It’s truly a unique way to experience this album,” explains Gigaton producer Josh Evans. “I’m excited for fans to be able to immerse themselves in the sound and to hear the depth and layers of these songs and performances.”
The Gigaton Listening Experience will be enhanced with a choice set of visuals curated and created by Evolve, the film-maker and artist behind the music video for the first single ‘Dance of the Clairvoyants.’
Maintaining a longstanding creative relationship, Abramorama powers these events worldwide. This marks Pearl Jam’s fourth theatrical collaboration with Abramorama following 2007’s Imagine in Cornice directed by Danny Clinch, 2011’s Pearl Jam Twenty directed by Cameron Crowe, and 2017’s Let’s Play Two, also helmed by Clinch.
Pearl Jam have shared two singles in advance of their upcoming album thus far: ‘Superblood Wolfmoon’ and ‘Dance Of The Clairvoyants.’
As previously announced, Pearl Jam will release their much-anticipated eleventh studio album, Gigaton, on Monkeywrench Records/Republic Records on March 27, 2020 in the US. Internationally, the album will be released and distributed by Universal Music Group. Produced by Josh Evans and Pearl Jam, Gigaton marks the band’s first studio album since Grammy award-winning, Lightning Bolt, which was released on 15 October 2013.
Gigaton is out on 27 March and can be pre-ordered here.
